Lift the veil of which separates logic and emotion? Sight and touch? She’s coming for him soon With the key to his Rebirth ‘Meet me at the Bottom of the Spiral Staircase’ The tears she sheds Belong to him… For him… Reaching Within the nucleus of an Isolated cell Love hurts that much A seemingly black abyss She descends Answering to the Dark Moon's Call Discovering The deepest place That eats away at her flesh... She’ll sacrifice her life For Him… If one moment His eyes see…

Your writing has always been so perfect and beautiful - This one is so deeply beautiful in a dark way - I wrote a poem awhile back titled "The Ladies of Poetry Soup" and even though you were gone so long I kept both you and Lynn Marie in it because you are forever in my heart - I hope life has treated you well Tami - I pray for you often because you I could never forget - I'm in the process of starting back to collage - sure hope I get me a teacher as special as you - I doubt that though
